Signature Product. Fruit Trees Alive! has been specially formulated to meet the growth demands of apples, peaches and most other fruit trees. Eleven macro- and micronutrients are in the mix, including copper and sulfur, which produce the delicious sweetness so characteristic of well-grown tree-ripened fruit.

Build-Up Formula For small, newly planted trees, scatter about two cups around the trunk; for larger new trees, apply at the rate of 10 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. For severely depleted soils, apply in the second year at the rate of 5 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. in spring and again in midsummer.

Maintenance Formula After using our Build-Up Formula for one year, switch to this Maintenance Formula (unless your soil is poor). For best results, use 5 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. in spring and again in midsummer.

Fruit Trees Alive! was designed for medium to heavy soils with average fertility. On sandy soils, or for the tree's first year of growth, use our Build-Up Formula, which contains extra micronutrients. Then follow up annually with Maintenance Formula to replace nutrients used for growth and production.
